Kaliyah Clark

Kaliyah Clark, affectionately known as "Tink Tink," was born on July 23, 2024, in Gainesville, Florida. The world was graced with her radiant presence for a brief period, as she began her journey in the arms of her loving family and departed too soon on March 21, 2025, in Lake Butler, Florida.

From her earliest days, Kaliyah had a spirit that could light up any room she entered. Her laughter and joy were infectious, and many described her as one of the happiest babies anyone could ever meet. Her unique personality shone through as she took on life with an independence rarely seen at such a tender age. Kaliyah had a profound love for food, embodying a delightful enthusiasm for eating anything that was near her. These charming memories of her giggles and delight around meals will forever resonate in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to witness them.

Kaliyah is survived by her devoted father, Aquavius Clark, and her loving mother, Kelley Rollins. Her family will eternally cherish her memory, including her grandmothers, Aqualia Curtis and Katie Rollins, along with her grandfather, Wayne Rollins, Jr. She leaves an indelible mark on her extended family: her aunts, Antanae Clark and Hannah; her uncles, Anthony Clark, Hayden, and Tripp; her great-aunt Tiffany Rollins and her cousins, Kenidi, Jaslyn, and Dempsey.  Each of them holds a piece of her spirit, a reminder of her joy and the love they shared.

A graveside service to honor and celebrate the beautiful life of Kaliyah Clark will be held on March 27, 2025, at Dekle Cemetery in Lake Butler, Florida, starting at 2:00 PM and concluding at 3:00 PM.

Though her time with us was tragically short, Kaliyah's impact and the joy she brought into the lives of her family will be cherished forever. In every smile, in every memory shared, and in every heart that she touched, Kaliyah's legacy lives on, a testament to the radiant love she embodied.
